فیل ناپدید می شود

Alternate cover edition of ISBN 9780679750536With the same deadpan mania and genius for dislocation that he brought to his internationally acclaimed novels A Wild Sheep Chase and Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World, Haruki Murakami makes this collection of stories a determined assault on the normal. A man sees his favorite elephant vanish into thin air a newlywed couple suffers attacks of hunger that drive them to hold up a McDonalds in the middle of the night and a young woman discovers that she has become irresistible to a little green monster who burrows up through her backyard.By turns haunting and hilarious, The Elephant Vanishes is further proof of Murakamis ability to cross the border between separate realities -- and to come back bearing treasure.
